I mean, if you were pretty stable before (not losing, but not gaining), then this moderate carb, low cal isn't working if you've gained 16lbs!!!<br /> <br />I suggest a low carb diet, and NOT low fat is a great way to go. I know, very radical for some to hear that. <br />Before, I believe you were doing low carb, and low calorie (which usually means lower fat). <br /> <br />The low carb plan I follow...I have the same grams of fat and protein (about 130) and less than 45 effective carbs per day. Calories are not something I pay attention to - at all. <br />I'm down 120lbs and very stable. I still have 20lbs before I'm at my official goal weight, and admittedly the weight loss has really slowed down as I get closer and closer, but I can have days where I eat too many carbs and it doesn't stay with me. <br />That is huge! To eat right most of the time but not be punished when I have a celebration meal.<br /><br />Anyway...I hope you find something that works for you. If you want to hear more about the way I eat, just holler!Ammynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3863585675491668641.post-89123004523110328312009-06-02T16:22:35.478-04:002009-06-02T16:22:35.478-04:00Hi Ammy, thanks :-)

My weekly menu is all very close to this week's that I posted previously - http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3064/3526027700_1212175994_b.jpg<br /><br />The difference is, I've recently upped it by 200 calories per day. Since my trainer and I thought maybe I wasn't eating enough.Chai Lattéhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01237308695021434230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3863585675491668641.post-88863102457303530912009-06-02T16:19:59.207-04:002009-06-02T16:19:59.207-04:00I'm trying to remember back...didn't you just swit...I'm trying to remember back...didn't you just switch to a low calorie plan, not necessarily low carb? Remind me.<br /><br />Plus, why don't you post your menu each day? You said you record it elsewhere (daily plate or fitday or something), but why don't you post it here? Or provide a link so we can view?<br />Then we could give some suggestions.

Have you discussed your meal plans with your trainer? Maybe it's something in your diet? Also, are they taking your measurements?Sweet Copper Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05902201973855662944noreply@blogger.com
